Woman With Flat Tire Is Struck, Killed On I-294

A woman who got a flat tire was struck and killed by a semi early Tuesday morning when she got out to check on her flat.

The 34-year-old woman has not been identified, but Illinois State Police said she was traveling south on I-294 just after midnight and had pulled over to check on her flat tire.

Shortly after, a semi hit her and went on to side swipe her car. At this time, the police do not believe drugs or alcohol played a factor in the accident.
